Bard College at Simon's Rock is a unique institution focusing on early college experiences for high-achieving students. The Linguistic, Comparative, and Related Language Studies program offers specialized knowledge, but it comes with a significant financial burden, as graduates face a negative lifetime value and a long debt payoff period with relatively low starting salaries.
Warning: It's better to just get ANY job than to join this program!
This program has a negative lifetime value - that means that your salary won't go up enough to cover the costs + debt of going!
